About the Artist
Why Paper Jackal?
I just liked it and thought that it wouldn’t keep me in a tight box.
Most of my work is done on paper, and jackals symbolize opportunism, intelligence, courage, isolation, solitude, determination, adaptability and survival!
Welcome! My name is David! I’m a transplant from Michigan, but I’ve been a Chicago resident for over a decade. I love creating art, but I seem to gravitate into two very different types of imagery; flat geometric designs and figurative drawings. This sort of makes sense, since my background is in two-dimensional printmaking and graphic design. I’ve been making work for quite a long time, but I’ve just now recently decided to build an online presence and see if folx are interested in taking a piece home for themselves.
If there’s anything you’d like to ask, or if you have any ideas of things you’d like to see, don’t hesitate to reach out!
